Red Riding Hood'S Raisin Rice(Serves 4) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 c. long grain rice (uncooked)
1 c. seedless raisins, well washed
1 Tbsp. butter
6 cloves (whole)
2 small pieces cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. caraway seeds (optional)
1/2 tsp. turmeric (optional)
2 c. hot water
Preparation
-
Sort, wash and soak the rice for 1 hour. Heat the butter in a heavy, large skillet. Add the cloves and cinnamon and, if desired, the caraway and turmeric. Keep the heat very low and fry these only for a minute or two. Then add the washed and drained rice, salt and raisins. Mix and fry gently for a few minutes, stirring all the time. Next add the hot water. Mix thoroughly and bring to a boil quickly. Turn the heat very low and cook either on the stovetop or better still in the oven at 350\u00b0 for 30 minutes with the lid on.
